Aladdin = Overrated. It's just annoying.
Wreck It Ralph = Underrated. I know its new and all, but it just doesn't seem to get the same love as Pixar stuff. Merchandise was barely sold in the parks. Ranks up there with The Incredibles for me.

If only I could still find it made from chocolate and hazelnuts. All I can track down is mostly palm oil. It's delicious, but I can't in good conscience eat something that's basically cake frosting. If anyone knows where to find "real" Nutella, please let me know.

I LOVE the MotoActv. GPS, WiFi, BlueTooth, MP3, syncs with a heartrate monitor, and can be used for all kinds of sports. It tracks every kind of data, including which songs make you run fastest. It automatically syncs up to the site when you're in range of a configured network. It can even tell where you are on a golf course and how far you are from the pin on a given hole. I wear mine all the time like a watch. For the cost I think it's definitely the way to go. (I got mine for $200).

The crowd is a big difference. Fun runs are typically family affairs, where you can find yourself dodging strollers and such and people run in groups. A lot of people that rarely run come out for them. So they are just that, FUN, and not meant to be taken too seriously. Folks that come to timed runs typically would like to do well and run individually or in very small groups of similar skill levels; they put a lot of effort in to getting PR's (personal records).

For example, I recently did the Firefly 5k/10k on Montrose Beach (also in Chicago). It was pretty frustrating, because the 10k was a timed run but the 5k was a fun run, and the courses merged about a half mile before the finish. Suddenly I came in to groups of slow walkers and strollers and almost knocked some people over.
